Back in 2010 I hiked to Kaiser Hot Springs, with an image in my head of a resort style hot springs. Needless to say, I was a bit disappointed. Just a few hundred yards further was Burro Creek, so that was the Kaiser Hot Springs pool. Plus, that was back before they cut a road in all the way down there, when you had to hike from the bridge on Hwy 93.

Back in 2010, I thought it would be a cool idea to camp at the top of the Hualapai's, hanging in a hammock tent tided to an abandon Microwave Tower. With a screened see thru top, I could watch the stars all night. Being the first time, it was a learning curve. The temp dropped to the high 30's and the wind blew all night long at about 30 to 40 mph. I was whipping like a flag in the wind and spent the night in a ball, trying to stay warm. Not my brightest idea ever Lol. Video taken on a 2010 cell phone and its technology back then. Good old days.........

A quick look at a choice in lug nuts, that might be better in running with the newer wheels on an older Jeep.

I was lucky enough to be out on this morning, that had an amazing sun rise.

Why can't you buy anything of quality these days ? After making the video I searched for the silicone egg rings and found them. I also watched a couple YouTube videos on them, and they seem to be the answer to my problem, and I ordered them. Not knowing what that non-stick coating is made of, I don't want to be eating it.

After $50 in vinegar and wearing out 3 wire brushes, it's looking pretty good. Not having a tub big enough for that large peace, I thought I'd dig a hole in the ground and line it with a large trash bag. After two attempts with two bags, I gave up because the vinegar ate thru both. So, I bought a cement mixing trough at Lowes. Then lastly, till I find a spot inside for it, it's going to set outside on the porch. To stop anymore rusting, I'm trying the seasoning thing, of all the parts like a cast iron skillet, seems to work great. Time will tell though.

If anyone knows that this is a gigantic waste of time, please comment below and share your knowledge. Then the lid was sticking, so I put a super SMALL amount of silicone grease on the seal, so the lid would go on and off easier, and man I had that stuff all over my hands. I thought I was going to drop it all, a dozen times. So, if my handling skills seemed a little awkward, that's why. Lol.....
